“…The application of molten salt synthesis is widely spread since 2005, from ferroelectric and ferromagnetic materials to materials for Li-ion batteries (Santhanam & Rambabu, 2010), www.intechopen.com semiconductors (Huang et al, 2010), phosphors (Yan & Lei, 2010), and photocatalysts (Arney et al, 2008), especially with regard to nano-sized materials . Although this review only deals with complex oxides, the application has been extended to simple oxide powders with specific morphology (Tiano et al, 2010). The preparation of nanoparticles with various shapes (equiaxed, wire, strip, plate) has been reported for a wide variety of materials.…”
